"That's an understatement. And the reason that most people become a Democrat, at least the reason I did, I think it's true, we don't dislike anybody. We're not against anybody. I mean, when I'm, you know, at my age, it was all White and Black growing up in the Jim Crow South. But I love Israel. I don't get it . And I don t have anything against them.

There's a way to do this. If we had a president that would lead us in. This anti-Semitic stuff, it's sickening man! it's a real problem. It's not a made up problem. It's a real real real definitely problem and it's getting worse."

He condemned anti-Semitism as sickening and worsening, while noting that some Democratic-aligned people are involved but most anti-Semites are not Democrats. He cited protests against Joe Biden at Columbia as an example of the problem.
